Understanding HMI programming software

HMI programming software is special software used for designing the graphical interface and writing some code where necessary for the interaction between the user (human) and the machine. The software is usually installed on the PC where programming will be done before it is downloaded to the HMI panel via a communication cable, just as we do for PLCs.

There are different kinds of programming software for different brands of HMI panels. The next section discusses various HMI manufacturers and their programming software.
